  • The fast-food marketing arms race has taken increasingly bizarre turns.
  • Burger King Thailand has released a 100-patty burger that costs nearly $300.

Burger King has been practically marinated in the spirit of competition from day one.

The brand came into the world just a year before McDonald's, the company that would become its archnemesis.
